Leczo - a kind of Hungarian stew made with the kolbacz smoked sausage from the Polish deli. I couldn’t believe there were Hungarian wax peppers for sale at Publix. Everyone loved the dinner.

gorgeous menu. I’m blown away by the burgers being under $10, the desserts being below $6, and the steaks being under $30!

Big difference between city prices and country prices. I did note that the menu is over 5 years out if date. Is that right? And I have watched menu prices steadily climb as the pandemic wears on.

I got their last prime rib which came out a little overdone (I prefer medium rare, this was medium). Still very good though I was annoyed the place didn't have a bar or even beer. That said, $28 for a prime rib and two sides is nothing to sneeze at

Imprerfect Produce delivered mine plus someone else's order of perishables to my door. Presently eating my way through a forest of vegetables.

The company can't take them back, and food banks don't take perishable donations from individuals. I decided to pay it forward and make a monetary donation to the food bank for what I estimate to be the cost of the mis-directed delivery.

I made several changes based on the Wikipedia entry for the dish and personal needs and preferences.

1 cut in half for 3 diners. One pound each of tomatoes and peppers. One sausage est. 1/2 pound. One medium onion.
2 sautéed onions first, then peppers before adding tomatoes.
3 seasoned with Hungarian sweet paprika, salt and thyme.
4 added a few diced cloves of garlic near the end.

Last night: baby back ribs and an Asian-style salad.

Tonight: Chicken shawarma-style, garlic sauce, pita, couscous, and what I call shawarma salad (tomatoes, dill pickles, garlic, lemon juice, parsley, olives oil and pickle brine)

I love baby back and they are a casualty of me being alone during covid. I used to grill them when I had a couple friends over---too much for just me & I miss them.

Sababa Cookbook's "green shakshuka" was obscenely good this AM for brunch. Takes an hour+, but it'll find a place in my weekend rotation. Will pair it with a nice bricohe next time to sop up the bits and juices that drip through my fork.

I’d never seen green before, just the standard tomato version. The recipe I called up suggested an eggplant version as well.
